Abstract

Heavy metals transfer factors help to observe metals impact on agricultural products (vegetables and/or fruits) to evaluate different bioaccumulation scenarios to interpret available experimental results and for designing fingerprints or bioaccumulation maps. The aim of this study was to evaluate the transfer factors (TF) of some heavy metals (HMs) including (Fe, Mn, Zn, Cu, Ni, Pb and Cd) from soil to root and leaves of parsley samples cultivated on polluted and nonpolluted areas and to identify the fingerprint of transferred metals. The heavy metal (HM) content was analyzed using Flame Atomic Absorption Spectrometry (FAAS) technique. The bioaccumulation factor (BF) and TF in parsley samples were used for obtaining the fingerprints (HMs bioaccumulation maps) of parsley samples.
